💛 Children’s Mental Health Week (9–15 February) 💛
For children with special educational needs, mental health and wellbeing can be impacted in ways that aren’t always obvious. Daily challenges around learning, communication, sensory processing, and fitting in can take a real emotional toll.
This week is a reminder of how important it is to recognise those pressures and to meet children where they are — with patience, understanding, and the right support in place. Every child deserves to feel safe, accepted, and confident in who they are.
At the Nigel Prosser Foundation, we believe that supporting children with SEN means looking beyond labels and focusing on the whole child — their feelings, strengths, and individual needs.
If you’re a parent, carer, sibling, or professional supporting a child with SEN, please know that your efforts matter, even on the days when it feels hard 💙
